Episode Summary[]
CeCe, Ty, and Tinka all try to trick Phil into letting Rocky back on the show, but it fails. Meanwhile Deuce tells Flynn about all the tourists coming over to Crusty's, looking for where the great Chicago fire started, thanks to an error in a newspaper. This gets Flynn thinking. While Ty, Rocky, CeCe and Tinka are at Crusty's, they are annoyed that Phil is there too. When Phil chokes on his food, Rocky saves his life. Later, Flynn uses the clueless tourists as a way to get some cash, by pretending that Crusty's really is a museum where the the great Chicago fire really started. Deuce was against it at first, but when Flynn shows him how much money he already up at CeCe's apartment, looking for Rocky. He thanks her for saving his life and offers to let her back on the show. Surprisingly, Rocky doesn't except, because she wants to get back on the show for being a talented dancer. So Phil lets her re-audition to get on the show. But even after a failed audition, Phil still let her back on the show, but once again, Rocky refused. So Phil tells her to come back tomorrow or she's off the show for good.
At her house, CeCe confronts Rocky about her actions in throwing away her chance of getting back on show, even though Phil offer it to her twice. CeCe then points out to Rocky that she is stubborn and wants her to admit. However, Rocky refuses to admit and believes that she isn't stubborn. Rocky then tells CeCe that she doesn't want to get back on the show just because of some petty hand out. Although, CeCe points out that she could have repeated a grade if one of her teacher decided to just give her a passing grade so she won't have her again for another year, as Rocky does see her point. Despite CeCe's point, Rocky refuses to come to the studio before rehearsal. Having enough of Rocky's stubbornness, CeCe just tells her friend to not come back to the show at all and she leaves her house.
However, despite their fight, CeCe believes that Rocky might change her mind, but doesn't know when. Also, fearing that Rocky will blow her chance to get back on the show once again because of her stubbornness, CeCe developed another plan with Ty and Tinka. They had Ty dress up like Rocky, and do the audition for her, but when Rocky really showed up, they were busted. CeCe explains to Rocky that she is stubborn and knew she would change her mind, but was scared that she didn't, which she understood and knows that her intentions were well-meaning. Rocky admits to CeCe that she was right about her being stubborn and came to the studio to apologizes to both her friend and Phill. Also, Rocky tells Phil that she knows she is a good dancer and doesn't have to say it. However, Phil reveals that he has seen Rocky in past episodes of Shake It Up Chicago, and that she was one of the best dancers, and that he didn't want to admit that he made a mistake. He asked her to come back on the show, and this time she accepted, as she appreciated to be acknowledged for her talent. Also Deuce and Flynn were caught by health inspector and had to shut down their fake business.
